How to force the script window to be placed in front

Post by Fermin » Wed Jun 08, 2016 6:00 pm

Hi. Does anyone help me with this, please?

How to force the script window to be placed in front when using the shortcut [⌘+option+click] to see the code of a object.

This happens in a Mac with LC8. In LC7 works well.

Thank you very much.

It seems this is different between LC 7 and 8, so this should be reported as a bug.

You can report it here: http://quality.livecode.com

If you don't want to report it, just let me know and I'll submit a report.

OK. PBH.
I can not explain well in English so it would be good that you did it, please. Thanks Paul.

It's my second discovery of bug... :)

You seemed to describe it well enough for Paul to know what you meant. Just copy that and make that the text of your bug report.

Looks like somebody else jumped in and reported it…

You're right, PBH, that's exactly what I wanted to report.
